Helping the world for free in the winter with #Folding@Home

When it gets colder, we use a lot of money to heat the house. Imagine if this money could be used to solve the Alzheimer’s disease, without it costing you anything more?

Impossible, you might say! Nope. It’s as simple as going to http://folding.stanford.edu, press “Start Folding” and voila you will help the world to find a solution to the diseases as Alzheimer, Huntington, Parkinson etc.

What’s going on?

You will use the computer to solve the diseases

Your computer gets hotter of working, that heats your house

You turn down the heat in your house, because your machine is warming instead

Power costs are exactly equal, because the heat is heat, no matter what make it

The world wins. Maybe even you one day, because we found the solution to a disease you got

So, help the world for free during the winter months! It does not cost you many minutes to go to http://folding.stanford.edu. But remember, when summer comes and you start cooling the house, turn off folding also

Right now in my computer to help solve: “This project explores the folding and dynamics of E.coli RNase H.”
